Sweden’s Axel Willner – aka The Field – will release a new album later this year, following 2011’s brilliant Looping State of Mind. Cupid’s Head will be released Sepetmber 30th via Kompakt, and above you can take in the artwork, which once again retains the same format, albeit with a starkly darker hue. Speaking to FACT, Willner says of the album:
“When I started to work on Cupid’s Head it was quite awkward. I felt that I had nothing to put into a new album and I´m not the type to sit down and force something out in the studio. But then, after a few modest attempts, I got a first loop together and running which turned out (in a short time) to be ‘No.No…’. It was a revelation of sorts as making it felt new to me, and different, and that’s when it all came out.”
